Ribosomal DNA inheritance and recombination in Neurospora crassa.

P J Russell1, R C Petersen, S Wagner.   

Abstract

The genetic segregation of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) in Neurospora crassa was analyzed by exploiting restriction fragment length polymorphisms in the nontranscribed spacer (NTS) sequences of nine laboratory wild-type strains and wild-collected strains. In an analysis of random spore progeny from seven crosses, and of ordered tetrads from two of those crosses the rDNA was shown to be inherited in a simple, stable Mendelian fashion, exhibiting an approximately 1:1 ratio of the two parental rDNA types. No meiotic recombinants were detected among the progeny, indicating that non-sister-chromatid crossing over is highly suppressed in the rDNA region. The basis for this suppression of meiotic recombination is not known.
